Chapter 6 Once asked, the red dust was gorgeous
Walking through the dense forest path, you will see a quaint wooden house in front of you, and there is a medicine garden in front of the courtyard, in which all kinds of spiritual herbs and treasures are planted, all of which are extremely precious and coveted by the monks.
As the eldest disciple of Elder Jinyang, this dense forest belongs to Mu Ye and belongs to him.
So, Zhuo Chuan took Xiao Tingting to follow the advice of the pastor's brother, stayed here, and waited for Wu Daochang to solve the problem and make proper arrangements afterwards.
But what Zhuo Chuan didn't expect was that this stay was a whole few months, and Wu Haoran had important things to travel there, so he temporarily entrusted the two of them to the animal husbandry.
"The elder said, let me lead you to practice first, and then deal with it when he comes back. The animal husbandry had no choice but to put the ancient books brought out of the scripture pavilion on the table.
This is a monastic scripture, which is usually stored in the depths of the Scripture Pavilion, and he can only bring it out after getting Wu Haoran's special order, and it is directly taken to Zhuo Chuan.
"What is your understanding of the Tao?"
Mu Ye temporarily acted as a mentor, teaching Zhuo Chuan and the two to practice, and became their guide.
The three of them sat in the courtyard, feeling the light breeze blowing slightly, and the leaves swaying and rustling.
Zhuo Chuan pondered, and looked sideways at the verdant forest, the trees are luxuriant, and the flowers and plants are natural, which makes people feel peaceful and relaxed.
After a long time, he replied: "The 'Tao' as I understand it is a kind of transcendent nature, which is integrated into the world and transcendent, ethereal, free, free, and free!"
Zhuo Chuan thought of the myths and stories on the earth and various ancient classics, etc., the masters rode the wind, the fairy wind and bones, haunted the red world, but they were not confined to it.
The lotus comes out of the mud but is not stained, and the green lotus is not demonic!
Mu Ye nodded when he heard this, and did not make any comments on his understanding.
Because the path of cultivation is also the path of seeking the Tao, no one can say clearly who is right and who is wrong, who is wrong and who is right, and everyone has different perceptions and understandings, so there are also different "Taos".
Because of this, this world seems bizarre and bright!
"Tingting, what about you?" he looked at Xiao Tingting, wondering what a little girl understood by the "Dao".
Hearing this, Xiao Confused raised his head, crossed his hands and said: "It's a fairy, flying to the sky, omnipotent, you can go wherever you want, you can do whatever you want!"
She said this, this is the "Tao" in Tingting's mind, it is something she has always longed for, to be able to fly out of Yue Village and take her father to play everywhere.
The animal husbandry still did not comment on it, but said: "Your initial understanding of the 'Tao' often determines the future path, and everyone will have some different opinions more or less, and there is no distinction between high and low. ”
"It is not said that whoever is 'on the way' will go far, nor that it is not said that whoever will be difficult, it is all up to the monk himself.
He continued to teach, very seriously and dignified, because this was extremely important to Zhuo Chuan and the others.
After knowing the understanding and interpretation of their respective paths, the animal husbandry still did not let them look through the ancient books, but continued to guide, starting from various aspects and explaining them with various metaphors.
"At the beginning of the practice, it is to open up the potential in the body, stimulate the magic power of the gods, and use it to perform secret techniques and Taoism and so on. ”
Mu Ye asked Zhuo Chuan to stretch out his hand, lay it flat on the stone table in the courtyard, and then said: "Use your mind to imagine that your hand is detached from itself, and not associated with the body." ”
"What do you see?"
He asked, landing his fingertips on Zhuo Chuan's palm.
Zhuo Chuan did as he was told, and after a moment, his brows furrowed, and a strange feeling arose in his heart, but it was difficult to describe it.
After a long time, he finally spoke, staring at his arm on the table and said, "It's very peculiar, it seems to be a foreign object, but it can be used by me as I like, an indescribable feeling......"
Xiao Tingting also stretched out her hand at this time according to what the animal husbandry said, but she didn't feel anything and couldn't substitute it for her, so she muttered and chose to give up.
Mu Ye heard Zhuo Chuan's description, nodded with satisfaction, and said slowly: "This is the feeling of the Dao method in the body, it seems to be a foreign object, but in fact, it belongs to itself, and it can be used as you like." It's like your own arm, and you don't need to deliberately command it......"
Then, he explained a lot, bits and pieces, including his own comprehension and interpretation of the "Tao", for the two of them to refer to.
"Legend has it that the Almighty One can merge with the heavens and the earth and become one with the whole world, and at that time it seems that the mountains and rivers seen in front of him have become a part of the body, and every tree and grass is its own ......."
Time is slowly passing, Zhuo Chuan and Tingting are unconsciously immersed in it, following the thoughts of animal husbandry to travel the whole bright world and understand the colorful nature.
Suddenly, the eyes they looked around were different, and the trees in the dense forest were no longer low-level life forms, but had become part of the "Dao", a hand and an eye of the earth.
In a trance, Zhuo Chuan felt the spirituality that filled the whole heaven and earth, every flower, grass, mountain, tree, river and water all seemed to be vibrant, it was a life, all with wisdom, but different from them.
But this feeling quickly disappeared and it didn't last long!
"Once I heard the Tao, the red dust was gorgeous, the heaven and the earth were bright, and the light was strange!"
Mu Ye sighed like this, he knew that he had successfully guided the two, and then opened the ancient book on the table and handed it to Zhuo Chuan.
"This is the monastic scriptures collected by Ziyang, you must memorize it by heart and memorize it word for word. He commanded.
"Half a month later, I will return the book to the Scripture Pavilion!"
Then the animal husbandry got up and walked out of the courtyard, leaving the wooden house for the two of them.
"Brother Pastor, what if there are words you don't know?" Zhuo Chuan shouted, although the words in this world are very similar to the ancient Chinese characters of the earth, and he has studied for such a long time, he is still worried that he will not be able to recognize them all.
Hearing this, Mu Ye didn't stop and turned back, chuckled, and the words came slowly: "You let Tingting open the scriptures and ask her if there are any words she doesn't know." ”
Then, Xiao Tingting opened the yellowed book in her hand as she said, and her little eyes suddenly widened, and she shouted in surprise: "I know them all!"
She was very surprised and surprised, when she was in Yuecun, she obviously didn't learn much poetry and books, but she could recognize all the ancient scriptures of monasticism, which was very strange and unscientific.
"Cultivating Taoist scriptures, don't deliberately look at the words, there are divine laws and philosophies in them, mysterious Taoist rhymes, and go straight to the bottom of your heart. Whether it is a farmer in the mountains or a nobleman in the sky, they are all treated equally. ”
But if the text is disassembled, the words that you don't know will still be unrecognizable. ”
Mu Ye left the dense forest and left this place for Zhuo Chuan and the two to retreat.
In the time that followed, they recited the monastic scriptures every day, which is an ancient book called the "Shocking Sun Sutra", which is inherited from the Ziyang Cave Heaven, which is precious and mysterious.
However, there is only the Divine Blood Scroll, which belongs to the threshold part and is incomplete.
"That's right, the complete "Shocking Sun Sutra" must be extremely precious, how can it be easily taken out, it must only be in the hands of an important person like Wu Daochang. ”
He thought to himself, holding the scriptures in his hands anytime and anywhere, like a treasure that he couldn't put down.
It took Zhuo Chuan ten days to finally memorize it, and a few days later, Xiao Tingting also memorized the ancient scriptures, and the progress was gratifying!
"The Divine Blood Realm, the first stage of cultivation, stimulates the divine nature of the blood in the body, opens up the potential of the body, and embarks on the path of cultivation. ”
Zhuo Chuan sat in the courtyard, once again falling into the strange realm before.
"These spiritualities are actually the spiritual energy that wanders between heaven and earth, which can be refined into the body, so as to stimulate the mana in the body, give birth to the Dao method, and so ......on."
The "Sutra of the Shocking Sun" also says that the beginning of the path of cultivation requires an opportunity and an introduction, and not everyone can set foot in it.
Moreover, even if there is an opportunity, the monk himself needs to have the wisdom root, otherwise he will not be able to cultivate.
"There are two kinds of wisdom roots, born or passed down by elders......"
Zhuo Chuan muttered, it was obvious that Tingting's cultivation Huigen was passed down by her mother, Yi Wan'er.
"There is no distinction between the two kinds of wisdom roots, all of this still depends on the cultivator's own creation!"
